11 weeks to go!

Woo-hoo!!

At last a decent week of training. feeling good, mile was not high, but certainly getting there. Injury seems to be diminishing rapidly, more so now i have bought some little gel heal inserts. supposed to be for both for shock absorbancy, but i have just put one in my left heal under the insole to add 2-3mm on my length imbalance. Seems to be OK so far, but see how the next few weeks go.

Mon-   rest day, after the 17 mile walk.
Tues-   12 mile run to work (Canal path), via the physio on the way back.
Weds-  really good Circuit training session, and Yoga beforehand. 1 m run
Thurs-  10.5 mile run to work (Canal path)
Fri-        rest, glutes really hurt after circuits and Yoga.
Sat-       16 mile hilly run around Dewsbury and Brighouse. with 8-9kg pack on.
Sun -     5 mile run, no pack.

Mileage for the week - 44.5m
Feeling much better towards the end of the week. really trying not to overdue it. could have gone for another 16 miles this morning, but thought i'd get home and do just a short 5m round sale Water park, on the flat with no pack on.
Will slowly start to increase my training, but i will not exceed 50 miles this week. should be starting in the gym on the weights too. planning to put a heavy pack on and go on the stair-master thing.

Really enjoyed saturday's run. there were some long and steep uphill sections and i managed them much better than expected, total was about 1700ft of ascent in 3 climbs through out the run. was chucking down with rain, and pretty windy but warm. was out for 2hrs 15mins. but spend 30 mins visiting a friend en-route..

Very good week, seem to be back on it. did little heavy laden walking, but next week i will plan to do another long walk with weight.
